I made this doll a while back when I was transitioning away from the Pippi pattern and I don't think I blogged it. I wanted to make a pair of friends instead who are BFFs but verrry different. Like a lot of good friends are! In case you can't tell, this one is the mismatched, arty, outspoken, messy one of the pair.

I tried something a bit different with her face by filling in her eyes with embroidery. I like it.

I finished her and then other, more urgent things came up and I lost my momentum completely. But I like her. She needs a black pair of converse and a feather boa to complete her outfit. She and her neatnik, prim, girly, quiet, bookish friend will have to live in my head awhile longer, but they may come out to play again soon.

Adorable! She captures my heart as the way you filled in her eyes reminds me of a doll I made when I was a child (in the 60's). I still have her. She is made of recycled clothing and has bellbottom jeans and a cape! LOL! Thanks for jogging that joyful memory! I look forward to seeing the doll friend you make one day.
